I totally agree with you Inderpreet. The backend and the frontend must go
hand in hand.
There are few improvements I would like to suggest.
1. The current application needs BRL-CAD to be installed on the computer
and will work only for linux based operating systems. So, it would be
better if there is an option to upload the .g file, convert it into .obj on
the server and then download the .obj file. This would make it possible to
run the application on any OS without having BRL-CAD installed.
The user's activities and files could then be stored on cloud and displayed
on the dashboard when requested.
2. The backend would have to be completely rewritten from scratch and I
agree that Node could be a very good option.
3. The navigation in the scene(browser window) has to be improved. Some of
the things that come to my mind are,
a) Option to change the texture and material of the object.
b) A view cube in the scene.
c) A four view window which would show the perspective, top, front and side
view of the model in one quadrant each.
d) Option to create/manipulate the light sources.
4. Currently the application takes the .g file, converts it into .obj and
then displays it.There should be an option to upload .obj files directly.
